Directors: Alan Cumming and
Jennifer Jason Leigh. With
Jennifer Jason Leigh, Alan Cumming,
Jane Adams, Jennifer Beals, Phoebe Cates, Kevin Kline, Gwyneth Paltrow,
Parker Posey, John C. Reilly, Mina Badie, John Hickey, Denis O'Hare, Michael
Panes, Mary Lynn Rajskub and Karen Kilgariff.
Jennifer Jason Leigh and Alan Cumming will both
direct and star in a low-budget drama called The Anniversary Party
for Fine Line Features. Leigh and Cumming previously worked together on the
hit, Broadway musical Cabaret as Sally Bowles and the master of
ceremonies, for which Cumming earned his first Tony award in 1998.
Hollywood names like Parker Posey, Gwyneth Paltrow,
Kevin Kline, Phoebe Cates and John C. Reily will make up part of the cast.
Written by Leigh and Cumming, the film tells the story of 24 hours in the
life of a couple who get back together after being separated for a year. To
celebrate, they decide to host a sixth anniversary party and invite some
close friends. The party turns from a joyous occasion into a sensual and
dangerous game of 'adult' truth or dare.
Sense Mary Lynn and
Karen Kilgariff are cast as themselves in the picture, it is safe to assume
that they will be performing together at the anniversary party as "Girls
Guitar Club." That and / or doing a
couple of tunes on the soundtrack.
Release Date: June 8th, 2001 (limited
release)
Distributor: Fine Line Features
